User information

• Do not put articles in your washing machine if you have used a

solvent, alcohol, trichloroethylene, etc., to remove stains from

them. If you must use these stain removers, wait until the pro-

Precautions against frost

If your washing machine is exposed to temperatures below 0°C, take

the following precautions :

• Close the tap and disconnect the water supply pipe.

• Put the end of this pipe and the drain pipe into a bowl on the

tioning of detergents» section) and to the amount of washing and

how dirty it is.

Washing guide

Sorting and preparing your washing

• Sort the washing by type and care symbol (see chapter Interna-

tional symbols for care of textiles): normal wash for strong

washing that can resist energetic wash and spin; delicate wash

for delicate washing that should be treated more carefully. For

mixed loads composed of articles of different types of fibers,

choose a program and temperature suitable for the most fragile

fiber.

• Wash white washing and color washing separately. Otherwise,

the white washing may be colored or look gray.

• New clothes very often have too much color. Preferably wash

new clothes separately for the first time. Respect "wash separa-

tely" and "wash several times separately" care instructions.

• Empty pockets and spread out the washing.

• Take off all loose buttons, pins and hooks and eyes. Close zip fas-

teners, tie knots in laces and straps.

• Turn clothes made of several layers of textiles (sleeping bags,

anoraks, etc.), colored hosiery and wool and textiles with add-on

decorations, inside out.

• Wash small delicate items (socks, tights, bras, etc) in a washing

net.

• Treat curtains with special care. Remove curtain hooks and put

net curtains in a net bag or a sachet.

Washing load depending on the nature of the ma-

terial

The quantity of washing that you put in your drum must not exceed

the maximum capacity of your washing machine. This capacity may

vary depending on the nature of your textiles. Reduce the quantity

of washing if it is very dirty or if you have terry cloth type materials.

Not all textiles have the same volume and the same water retention

capacity. This is why in general the drum should be filled:

• completely, but without excessive pressure for cotton and linen,

and for mixed washe,

• half full for treated cottons and synthetic fibers,

User information

• about one third full for very delicate articles such as net curtains

and wool.

For a mixed wash, fill the drum as required for the most delicate

material.

Detergents and additives

Only use detergents and additives suitable for use in a washing

machine. Read the manufacturer's instructions and respect sections

about detergents dispenser and detergents.

We advise against using several types of washing powder at the same

time. You might damage the laundry.

The quantity of detergent to be used depends upon the amount of

laundry to be washed, the hardness of the water and how dirty the

laundry is.

If the water is soft, slightly decrease the doses. If the water is hard (the

use of a water softener is advised) or if the laundry is very dirty or

stained, increase the doses a little.

You can find out the degree of hardness of your water by contacting

your local water company or any other competent authority.

Powder detergents can be used without restriction.

Liquid detergents must not be used when selecting a pre-wash. For any

cycle without pre-wash, they can be either be poured into a dosing ball

placed directly in the drum or into the washing compartment. In either

case, the washing cycle must be started immediately.

Tablet detergents or individually dosed detergents must be placed in

the washing compartment of the detergent drawer in your appliance.

To treat stains before the washing cycle, follow the doses and

instructions recommended by the manufacturer of the product. If you

use the detergent product to treat stains, you must start the washing

cycle immediately.
